Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 16 December 2020. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Border Carbon Adjustment Tariffs and Decarbonisation.
Border Carbon Adjustment Tariffs and Decarbonisation
I commend the hon. Gentleman on bringing this matter forward. He is right about the Prime Minister’s statement on environmental issues. Does he agree that we now have the potential to make a real and lasting change for the better by implementing environmental changes, but that we must also be aware that the pressure on businesses must allow them to continue to operate and not put them out of business? There is a balance to be got, I believe, and we have an obligation not only to the industry, but to the environment to get it right.
